Proposal: call plugin handler after locks are broken. Such handlers can then notify the old owner of what has happened.
If accepted soon, I will try to build this.

Wouldn't you rather have
ReleaseLocksOnSave?

Yes, but if someone does break a lock I'd like to know about it.

As well as, or instead of?

As well as.
(Sorry for the delay, we really do need "notify me when someone replies"!!)

OK, but bear in mind that Dakar doesn't have locks, it has leases which are advisory only (though they can still be broken).
The main issue with this proposal is the cleanliness of the architecture for finding out the email address of a user. I think that may require a plugins API extension (or exposure of the User object to plugins).
